Crimes commited under violent amounts of Animosity would be written off as crimes of passion, because Animosity is that strong.

Also the name of a legendary figure who took his opposition and used it create a powerful rage that propelled him to victory over all those who dared defy him.

Why did you make Animosity mad? You know what he did to all those 'revolutionaries'.
